Abstract
In this investigation, an alternate green-route based on myco-synthesised silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) was evaluated to control plant disease to reduce the usage of synthetic chemicals. Here, we described biologically synthesised Ag NPs using the corn grain contaminant, Nigrospora oryzae, and were well-characterised by UV-visible spectrophotometer, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and particle size analyzer. The pathogenic behaviour of the Fusarium spp. were checked on Giza 86 and Giza 90 cultivars under greenhouse conditions. F. moniliforme and F. oxysporum exhibited high pathogenecity against Giza 90 and Giza 86 cultivars respectively. The antifungal activity of biosynthesised Ag NPs was evaluated against eight species of Fusaria causing damping-off of cotton seedlings. In vitro treatments with different concentrations of Ag NPs were achieved on Czapek Dox agar and Potato dextrose agar plates. Fungal growth was drastically retarded from 25 to 200 ppm of Ag NPs interaction. The antifungal activity of Ag NPs against the Fusarium spp. was clearly proven.

Abstract
Seed-borne fungus Penicillium duclauxii was examined in this study to investigate its capability of synthesizing silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs). In vitro experiments were conducted using corn-grain contaminating fungal isolate. Ag-NPs detection and characterization were assayed by the aid of spectroscopic techniques. Spectroscopy (energy dispersive), X-ray diffraction, transmission electron-microscope and optical absorption dimensions were employed. Ag-NPs with biosynthesized were used to test invitro against Bipolaris sorghicola; the cause of target leaf spot disease on sorghum plants. The myco-synthesis of Ag NPs using Penicillium duclauxii was proved in this study. Moreover, Bipolaris sorghicola was successfully inhibited by such Ag NPs in vitro.

Abstract
Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have application potential in diverse areas ranging from wound healing to catalysis and sensing. The possibility for optimizing the physical, chemical and optical properties for an application by tailoring the shape and size of silver nanoparticles has motived much research on methods for synthesis of size- and shape-controlled AgNPs. The shape and size of AgNPs are reported to vary depending on choice of the Ag precursor salt, reducing agent, stabilizing agent and on the synthesis technique used. This chapter provides a detailed review on various synthesis approaches that may be used for synthesis of AgNPs of desired size and shape. Silver nanoparticles may be synthesized using diverse routes, including, physical, chemical, photochemical, biological and microwave -based techniques. Synthesis of AgNPs of diverse shapes, such as, nanospheres, nanorods, nanobars, nanoprisms, decahedral nanoparticles and triangular bipyramids is also discussed for chemical-, photochemical- and microwave-based synthesis routes. The choice of chemicals used for reduction and stabilization of nanoparticles is found to influence their shape and size significantly. A discussion on the mechanism of synthesis of AgNPs through nucleation and growth processes is discussed for AgNPs of varying shape and sizes so as to provide an insight on the various synthesis routes. Techniques, such as, electron microscopy, spectroscopy, and crystallography that can be used for characterizing the AgNPs formed in terms of their shape, sizes, crystal structure and chemical composition are also discussed in this chapter.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have several technological applications and may be synthetized by chemical, physical and biological methods. Biosynthesis using fungi has a wide enzymatic range and it is easy to handle. However, there are few reports of yeasts with biosynthetic ability to produce stable AgNPs. The purpose of this study was to isolate and identify soil yeasts (Rhodotorula glutinis and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa). After this step, the yeasts were used to obtain AgNPs with catalytic and antifungal activity evaluation. Silver Nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis, DLS, FTIR, XRD, EDX, SEM, TEM and AFM. The AgNPs produced by R. glutinis and R. mucilaginosa have 15.45 ± 7.94 nm and 13.70 ± 8.21 nm (average ± SD), respectively, when analyzed by TEM. AgNPs showed high catalytic capacity in the degradation of 4-nitrophenol and methylene blue. In addition, AgNPs showed high antifungal activity against Candida parapsilosis and increase the activity of fluconazole (42.2% for R. glutinis and 29.7% for R. mucilaginosa), while the cytotoxicity of AgNPs was only observed at high concentrations. Finally, two yeasts with the ability to produce AgNPs were described and these particles showed multifunctionality and can represent a technological alternative in many different areas with potential applications.

Abstract
The study explored biological synthesis of metallic silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from the less explored non‐pathogenic coprophilous fungus, sterile mycelium, PM0651419 and evaluates the antimicrobial efficacy of biosynthesised AgNPs when impregnated in wound fabrics and in combination with six antimicrobial agents. AgNPs alone proved to be potent antibacterial agents and in combination they enhanced the antibacterial activity and spectrum of antibacterials used in the study against a microbiologically diverse battery of Gram positive, Gram negative and multidrug‐resistant bacteria. AgNPs impregnated on the wound dressings established their antibacterial activity by significantly reducing the bacterial load of pathogenic bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis e stablishing potential as effective antimicrobial wound dressings for treatment of polymicrobial wound infections. This study presents the first report on the potential of biosynthesis of AgNPs from the under explored class of coprophilous fungi. Their promise to be used in wound dressings and as potent antibacterials alone and in combination is evaluated

Abstract
This work was conducted to evaluate the ability of grape molding fungus; Penicillium citrinum to synthesize silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The potency of biosynthesized Ag NPs was checked against the aflatoxigenic Aspergillus flavus var. columnaris, isolated from sorghum grains. Biosynthesized Ag NPs were characterized and confirmed in different ways. X ray diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and optical absorption measurements confirmed the bio-synthesis of Ag NPs. The in vitro antifungal investigation showed that biosynthesized Ag NPs were capable of inhibiting the growth of aflatoxigenic A. flavus var. columnaris. Utilization of plant pathogenic fungi in the Ag NPs biosynthesis as well as the use of bio-Ag NPs to control fungal plant diseases instead of chemicals is promising. Further work is needed to confirm the efficacy of the bio-Ag NPs against different mycotoxigenic fungi and to determine the potent applicable doses.
